The '''Raston Warrior Robot''' was found in the Death Zone on [[Gallifrey]], it had the ability to move faster than lightning and was capable of taking out a troop of Cybermen (''[[The Five Doctors]]''). According to the [[Eighth Doctor Adventures]] novel ''[[The Eight Doctors]]'' by [[Terrance Dicks]], the robots were built by an ancient race, older than the Time Lords, who were ultimately destroyed by their own weapons. However, the novel [[Alien Bodies]] by [[Lawrence Miles]] claims that this is just false advertising on the part of their manufacturers. It uses atomic radiation as a power source, drawing it from the atmosphere and locks onto electrical impulses in the brain of its victim, but can become confused if it meets two beings with the same brain pattern. Another of these robots appears in the [[Past Doctor Adventures|Past Doctor Adventure]] ''[[World Game (Doctor Who)|World Game]]'', also by Dicks. |

The long-running British science fiction television series Doctor Who has featured many robots. The Daleks and Cybermen are not listed as they are cyborgs, and therefore not true robots.

The Mechanoids were large, spherical robots originally created to serve humans in The Chase. Mechanoids which had been sent to prepare the planet Mechanus for human colonization kept the astronaut Steven Taylor prisoner, since he did not have the Mechanoids' control codes. Daleks, following the TARDIS crew, engaged the Mechanoids in battle.
The Mechanoids appear in the Big Finish audio drama The Juggernauts. In this story, Davros adds human nervous tissue to robotic Mechanoid shells to create the Juggernauts of the play's title. The Mechanoids also appear in the comic strip The World That Waits in the 1965 annual The Dalek World.

Raston Warrior Robot
The Raston Warrior Robot was found in the Death Zone on Gallifrey, it had the ability to move faster than lightning and was capable of taking out a troop of Cybermen (The Five Doctors). According to the Eighth Doctor Adventures novel The Eight Doctors by Terrance Dicks, the robots were built by an ancient race, older than the Time Lords, who were ultimately destroyed by their own weapons. However, the novel Alien Bodies by Lawrence Miles claims that this is just false advertising on the part of their manufacturers. It uses atomic radiation as a power source, drawing it from the atmosphere and locks onto electrical impulses in the brain of its victim, but can become confused if it meets two beings with the same brain pattern. Another of these robots appears in the Past Doctor Adventure World Game, also by Dicks.
